SCORPIO HOROSCOPE for JANUARY 2025

SCORPIO/SCORPIO ASCENDANT

So the main astro rocking your world as January begins, is your ruler Pluto  getting real in your 4th house of home and family-for the long haul in 2025 and the next 20 years. You can feel in your bones, how deeply you are about to transform the devotional connection as well as weird power trips, with your family & tribe at home. Also the big questions about where you want to live, or any financially significant property decisions.

And after Venus escorting Pluto into your 4th last month,  is nice to have Venus still here as Moon and caring Ceres conjunct Pluto, for the first few days of Jan. To begin the month with a sweet sense of familial harmony and that you can create a nurturing home for yourself, as best as possible right now.

Which is even more relevant, jumping forward to the New Moon of Jan 29th in your 4th, in a stellium with Mercury exactly conjunct Pluto, and Ceres involved. You have such an intelligent grasp of family dynamics by the end of Jan. So even if Mercury provokes any seething Plutonian domestic drama, the better to reveal the kind of communication skills required, to work it out. Think of this as a necessary process working itself out in the background all month, for an evolving home base to support everything else that’s going on:

Because Mars retrograde in your 10th/brilliant career sector as Jan begins, opposite Pluto in your 4th. A moment to get a handle on all the exciting vocational plans, that seem to have stalled since Mars turned retro last month-but are still totally promising if you dark horse work them patiently in the background, sans trying to force progress just yet. And realising that sorting out your domestic scenario in the meantime is gold, to support you charging forward professionally, when Mars gets moving direct in your 10th from April onwards.

Meanwhile Mars backs into your expansive 9th house from Jan 6th, where he will remain retrograde until late Feb. It’s quite a trip, to be so fired up to get out of your comfort zone and expand your horizons but slowly, slowly. Like driving towards your wildest dreams with the handbrake on…

Especially if you have exciting travel/relocation plans? Is much more auspicious to scheme for the moment-to prepare to physically get a move on after Feb. Or if you are in transit sooner-embracing any delays as a chance to slow the fuq down, smell the roses as you go and appreciate the buzz of being in a new environment

Or if excited about an academic/writing project or philosophical debate you’re trying to figure out, about the broader meaning of life or whatever-the intellectual stimulation is real! So it could actually be a buzz to re-consider and finesse your own point of view, to open your mind to new possibilities, right?

You will feel all of this with maximum emotional intelligence, around the Full Moon of Jan 14th, in your 9th house conjunct Mars retro.

Meanwhile the fabulousness of Venus into your 5th house, from Jan 3rd. The 5th is all about your innate talent, the creative process to get better at it, playful self expression, flirty romance and having fun doing whatever turns you on. So you can imagine how flirty, creative

Venus shines like a diamond in this sector of your chart! Especially relevant, as Venus joins a stunning stellium of planets in your 5th, this month:

Neptune in your 5th for the last several years, has ideally been mainlining divine inspiration from your creative muse, and had your self expression totally enchanting and glamorous. And ok, maybe a bit of louche behaviour in terms of naughty pleasures/totally avoiding responsibility hmmm?

Also Destiny Point, in your practical 6th house for the last 18 months, has had had you fully onto the most meaningful professional growth and rewarding lifestyle, you’ve been willing to work your ass off towards. Which all comes together with the Destiny Point into your 5th house from Jan 13th, immediately conjunct Neptune. The perfect combination really, as Destiny Point whips your Neptune into shape. To direct your brilliant talent and charm as intentionally as possible, as magical manifestation about whatever turns you on-is so available right now!

Because meanwhile, Saturn in your 5th since early 2023. On the one hand this has been brilliant to kick your ass in a good way, about creative discipline to get really good at what you do, and the natural integrity you bring to how you express yourself. You quite enjoy being taken seriously, because superficial, fluffy nonsense aint your style, right? Or maybe Saturn has been cramping your style a bit-with weird self doubt and exacerbating your tendency towards an introverted, serious demeanour?

Which brings us back to the fabulousness of Venus into your 5th this month-exactly conjunct Saturn by Jan 20th. Another perfect combination. Venus lifts any Saturn doldrums up with sparkly confidence, renewed faith in the creative process you’ve been working so hard at and permission to have fun! Whilst Saturn keeps Venus honest, as you remain aligned with the integrity of right action in the world and the satisfaction of being true to your creative vision no matter what.

Including any flirty romance going on, or re-imagining the chemistry with your partner-it’s fluttery fun but also you have deeper desires going on, to keep it real, as usual. This is what makes you so hot, of course.
